This invention relates to improvements in stoves and the same has as its principal object the provision of a stove which when ignited, will become fully heated within a comin stoves of conventional types.

Another salient object of the invention is to provide a stove wherein the air is re-heated thus dispensing with the old method of permitting the hot air to escape and intaking cold air which obviously necessitates the consuming of much fuel in order to rapidly heat the air within the time limited to its passage thru the stove.

These and other important objects of the vinvention will become more apparent to the reader after considering the invention as described and claimed hereinafter.

In the drawings Figure 1 represents a front side elevation of the improved stove.

Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view thru the tove taken substantially on the line 2-2 of ig. 1. A

Fig. 3 represents a fragmentary horizontal sectional view taken substantially on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2, showing the platform with the burner removed.

Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, a rect-angularshaped casing 3 is open at its lower end or bottom side 4 and arranged between the casing 3 adjacent the open bottom side thereof, is a perforated shelf 5 formed with a suitable L number of spaced openings 6. This shelf is constructed by forming the front side of the casing 3 with an opening and bending the material displaced, inwardly to assume the horizontal disposition shown in Fig. 2.

The outer edge portion of the shelf is bent upwardly to provide a flange 7. An elongated horizontally disposed plate 8 is hingedly connectedV as at 9 to the casing 3 at the lower edge of the aforementioned opening. The plate 8 is formed with pairs or rows of openings 10 while the upper edge of the plate 8 is secured to the casing 3 by suitable pivotal fasteners 11.

The material displaced from the upper portion of' the aforementioned opening" 1n the front sideo'f the-'casing is bent outwardly in the declining v.position shown in Fi'g. '2't`o provide -a beak or visor y12which has its outer edge strengthened vby being rolled Vas aty 13. paratively shorter time than can be attained l Mounted within the casingis a defle'ctor ,in theform ofa partition wall generally ferredy to by the numeral 14.-V This wall-.is constructed ofa single sheet Ofmetal, being bent to provide the side walls 15 and the intermediate longitudinally extending Yand slightly forwardly inclinedwall 1.6.- n

Thewall lterminates as at l17 at a point above the loweredges ofthe side walls 15, and

the lower edges of the side walls 15 terminatey Y a substantial distance above the shelf 5.

A predetermined number of burners may be arranged upon the shelf 5, land these burners may be of any type desired, however, the

drawings show burners of the lamp type,`

wherein the fuel container 18 is supported.` by the shelf 5 and preferably abuts the ange 7 thereof. This type of burner employs a wick 19 and has the shade 2O arranged over and above the burner.

It will thus be seen that air entering through the open bottom of the casing under the burner will enter the perforated ventilating apron 21 of the lamp and pass through the shade 2()V where `it becomes heated and, rises toward the top of the casing 3. The air' as it passes over the top edge of the deflector 14, gradually becomes cool and descends at the outside of the delec-tor and re-enters the Ventilating apron from around the lower, edges of the deflector as substantially shown by arrows in the drawings. It will be noted l that there is no air channel at the top to drive the air down but the usual air inlet under the burner sucks the hot air to the bottom of the,I s.

resorted to without departing from the spiriti and scope of the invention as claimed hereinafter. I

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is 4 1. A stove of the character described corn-f* lice prising a casing, a shelf supported Within the casing and adjacent the bottom thereof, a burner for disposition upon lsaid support, a vertically disposed dellector wall supported within the casing and being spaced at its upper and lower edges from the top of the` casing and the shelf respectively, said deiector Wall comprising a single sheet of metal bent at its end portions to provide end Walls for attachment to the inner side of the front -Wall of the casing.

2. A stove of the character described comprising a casing, a shelf supportedy Within the casing and adjacent the bottom thereof, a burner for disposition upon said support, a vertically disposed deflector Wall supported within the casing and being spaced at its upper and lower edges from the top of the casing, and the shelf respectively, said deector Wall comprising a single sheet of metal bent at its end portions to provide end Walls for attachment to the'inner side of the front Wall of the casing, the front Wall of said casing being provided With an opening, and a closure plate for disposition over said opening.

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature. HARRY L. MGKOWN.
